Still another aspect of psychology is an unconscious suggestion against one's own wishes. This happens, for instance, when a person says, "I see it, my attitude is quite wrong." But it is his attitude, it is in his own hands, and yet he watches and only says, "My attitude is wrong'! If he knows that his attitude is wrong why can he not make it right? It only means that he suggests to himself that his attitude is wrong. Or a person says, "I would like so much to have a friendly feeling towards you, but I feel like hitting you, I cannot help it." This means that he has suggested to himself that he must hit the other, and yet he is helpless before his own idea. When someone says that he wishes that he could be your friend, but that he is sorry that he happens to be your enemy, this is the greatest helplessness that one could ever have; it is as if he did not exist, as if he were worse than a log of wood, for the log of wood would not re-echo. The one who accepts a suggestion which goes against himself and his own wishes is poisoning himself and working against his own happiness.
